Man accidentally posts something very x-rated in eBay review for towel rack

When shopping online for a towel rack, you probably wouldn't expect there to be too much excitement involved.

But one woman got a big shock when she read through the reviews for a bamboo bath towel holder on eBay.

Hazel Coleman, from Weymouth, was just minding her own business when she stumbled across something rather unexpected - and very x-rated - in a post.

One man had uploaded a snap of the towel rack in his home, but had accidentally shared a bit too much of himself in the process.

Hazel, 24, shared her discovery on Twitter, writing: "So I was looking through the reviews for a towel rack I wanted to buy on eBay and noticed something a bit unexpected in this customer picture."

Alongside this, she shared the man's photo which shows the towel rack in question, stood in front of a mirror in a bedroom.

In the reflection of the mirror, the eBay user known only as John, can be seen sitting up in his bed, legs spread apart.

And it's fair to say his sleep wear is doing little to protect his modesty, as his privates are on display for all to see.

In his post on eBay, John gives the product a five star rating and writes: "Great to store my clothes at night, very nice and useful."

It's unclear whether or not he knew that he was showing all when he gave the review.

Dozens of people have liked the tweet, sharing their reactions to the photo.

One person wrote: "The box of tissues doesn't help."

Another commented: "Ohhh nooooo..."

A third joked: "Were the reviews a load of balls by any chance?"
